The Microkernel work is going rather well and perhaps it will be made available on some specific hardware after I get my hands on the hardware. For now I'm just playing around with the code.
There are existing Microkernels that are popular but I think I like this better. It's not my microkernel but it will be different than what it was. I have a weird idea and I don't know if I can get it to work.
If it works, I have performance and build quality estimates. Performance and build quality like a Lada or Yugo.

@AmpBenzScientist Shhh be careful ... They might be monitoring your sentiment now 😂

The closer I move to FLOSS, the less relevant I become. The world isn't going to move away from the digital prisons. I used to think that Libre Software was enough but it's not.
One of the biggest problems for people involved in development of Libre Software and Firmware isn't the actual development. The biggest problem is the whole idea of Intellectual Property on a physical device. The companies who designed these products have made them hostile to any other work than superficial Open Source. They have the legal right to have criminal charges pressed on people who are only working to give people the option to use FLOSS.
These companies will hide the fact that they have IP embedded in many different products and they won't make themselves known until development is underway on a replacement. They set traps and sabotage work on FLOSS. What they do isn't for security, criminals aren't deterred by laws.
The results from the above don't just waste a developer's time, it destroys their work, discredits them, erodes at morale and this affects an entire community. There would be many more stories about this if the companies didn't go after those who dare to be specific. There's nothing like being wronged by those who laid their traps just to cause harm. It's not uncommon to find BSD and similar licensed code being used in the same firmware.
My point is please be patient with the developers who fight to give people control over their own hardware. They don't get paid for their work and they could easily get criminal charges without knowingly violating any laws. These developers are usually some of the most dedicated and perhaps some of the best around. The best possible reward for these people is simply achieving their goal.
Improvise, adapt and overcome. I think I could make a reconfigurable antenna but the ideas I'm coming up with are very crude. It's not that it would be inefficient but it would be complex. Electronic and Pneumatic logic separate from the feed line.
I think I just witnessed Electromagnetism interference completely disrupt a cellular signal. I don't think I've seen lightning do that before. I think the plasma can cause this type of disruption. I'm not familiar with the exact Physics of plasma but I seem to recall being able to hear thunderstorms on some type of radio.
Waves are really cool.

You were right; installing the proprietary drivers did in fact solve the problem
